What is life?(1st Edition) by LynnMargulis, Dorion Sagan Hardcover, 208 Pages, Published 1995 by Simon & Schuster ISBN-13: 978-0-297-83327-7, ISBN: 0-297-83327-8
"What does it mean to live, to be alive, to be a being both a part of the world but yet separated from it by our skin? This scientific and philosophical exploration delves into one of the oldest questions of mankind. Exploring the meanings of death, the origins of life, the biological connection between death and sex, the symbiotic evolution of the five organic kingdoms - bacteria, protoctists, animals, fungi and plants, the authors make ..."

Larvae and Evolution(1st Edition) Toward a New Zoology (Protected Areas Programme) by Donald I. Williamson, LynnMargulis Hardcover, 223 Pages, Published 2009 by Springer ISBN-13: 978-0-412-03081-9, ISBN: 0-412-03081-0
"Many biological facts are irreconcilable with the assumption that larvae and adults evolved from the same genetic stock. The author of this book draws attention to these, and presents his alternative hypothesis that larvae have been transferred from one taxon to another.In his previous book (Larvae and Evolution, 1992), the author used larval transfer to explain developmental anomalies in eight animal phyla. In the present book, he clai ..."
"Now published by Academic Press and revised from the author's previous Five Kingdoms 3rd edition, this extraordinary, all inclusive catalogue of the world’s living organisms describes the diversity of the major groups, or phyla, of nature’s most inclusive taxa. Developed after consultation with specialists, this modern classification scheme is consistent both with the fossil record and with recent molecular, morphological and metabolic ..."
"In this groundbreaking book, Lynn Margulis and Dorion Sagan present an answer to one of the enduring mysteries of evolution--the source of inherited variation that gives rise to new species. Random genetic mutation, long believed to be the main source of variation, is only a marginal factor. As the authors demonstrate in this book, the more important source of speciation, by far, is the acquisition of new genomes by symbiotic merger. Th ..."

Symbiotic Planet(1st Edition) A New Look At Evolution (Science Masters Series) by LynnMargulis Hardcover, 160 Pages, Published 1998 by Basic Books ISBN-13: 978-0-465-07271-2, ISBN: 0-465-07271-2
"Although Charles Darwin's theory of evolution laid the foundations of modern biology, it did not tell the whole story. Most remarkably, The Origin of Species said very little about, of all things, the origins of species. Darwin and his modern successors have shown very convincingly how inherited variations are naturally selected, but they leave unanswered how variant organisms come to be in the first place.In Symbiotic Planet, renowned ..."
Slanted Truths Essays on Gaia, Symbiosis and Evolution by LynnMargulis, Dorion Sagan, P. Morrison Hardcover, 368 Pages, Published 1997 by Copernicus ISBN-13: 978-0-387-94927-7, ISBN: 0-387-94927-5
"Lynn Margulis, one of the most provocative scientific thinkers of our time, and her son, the writer Dorion Sagan, here present a selection from their many essays published in the last decade and a half. Margulis's scientific contributions are legendary. Her proposal that eukaryotic cells (the cells of all multicellular animals and plants) are made up of symbiotic unions of more primitive cells was at first widely derided but is now main ..."

"This revised edition introduces evidence that symbiogenesis is a major source of evolutionary innovation leading to the origins of new species. The author offers insights into the genetic and metabolic interactions of the bacterial comunities that became protocists. Among these diverse organisms, the earliest eukaryotes, including some that are fossilized in the Proterozoic record, are those that then evolved to become animals, plants a ..."
